Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Firstly, ALL of your donations and gift aid will go to the PWSA - NONE of it is being used to cover the cost of the jump, which I am paying for myself.
This will be a VERY scary event for me but having signed up to this Charity Event, it seems only fair that someone should benefit from my stupidity!
The Prader-Willi Syndrome Association (Registered Charity Number 284583) is desperately in need of funds. I work for ILG Ltd who have sufferers in their care, and I feel that the association deserves our support.
Prader-Willi syndrome is a complex genetic disorder, which is present from birth. Its main characteristics are: excessive appetite, low muscle tone, emotional instability, immature physical development, and (sometimes very mild) learning disabilities. Please visit their web site: pwsa.co.uk to find out more.
Many people would not consider jumping out of a perfeclty good plane, and frankly I'm beginning to wonder why I did, but what will, for me, take about 10 minutes, with eyes shut and everything crossed, I hope will go some way to easing the lives of those suffering with Prader-Willi Syndrome. With your support, sitting in the doorway of a small plane with feet dangling and nerves jangling will all be worth while. DON'T remind me about the free-fall bit which follows..... or the bit when I regain contact with terra firma.... I feel an OUCH moment looming....
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
Please donate whatever you can - Thank you!
